The October Harvest Moon always appears larger than normal. This year I photographed it from the Split Rock Lighthouse State Park Hwy 61 wayside. Clouds hindered seeing the moon along the horizon but when it broke out of the clouds it made a great photograph.

It was very difficult to get this photo of the double rainbow. Mist covered the camera before the shutter could be tripped. Half a second to take the photo after removing the lens cap before the camera lens was coated with water.
